Wallboards — Editor

The Wallboard Editor is a drag-and-drop interface for building and configuring real-time contact center dashboards.

Widgets can be added, resized, and arranged on the canvas to create layouts optimized for large displays or supervisor views. Each widget is configurable — specific queues, skills, or agent groups can be selected as data sources, and thresholds can be applied to visually indicate normal, warning, or critical conditions.

Wallboards update automatically with live data and are intended for continuous display on monitors or TVs, providing at-a-glance insight into current operational status without requiring manual refreshes.

Wallboard Options

The ellipsis in the top right of the editor opens wallboard-level options:

  • Go to Preview — opens a live preview of the wallboard as currently configured
  • Edit Wallboard — opens the wallboard configuration settings
  • Manage Parameters — configure widget parameterization (see below)
  • Manage Formulas — create custom metrics calculated from existing metric values (see below)

Manage Parameters

Parameters allow wallboard widgets to be filtered dynamically by a set criteria, avoiding the need to create separate wallboards for each agent, group, or skill. Widgets can be parameterized by:

  • Agent
  • Group
  • Skill
⚠️

Where it cannot be applied to

Agent Box and Group Box widgets cannot be parameterized.

Manage Formulas

Custom metrics can be created by combining existing metrics using a formula expression. Each formula requires:

FieldDescription
TitleName of forumula
Row Type / CategoryAgent, Group, Call Direction, Account Code, Skill, or None
FormatCount, Decimal, Duration, Percent, Boolean, or Text
Input (s)The metrics to use in the formula, referenced by index ({0}, {1}, etc.)
FormulaThe formula expression combining the inputs

For example, to add metric A ({0}) and metric B ({1}):

{0} + {1}
